Alpha Shallows Lyrics

He could fall and shake and weep
By his holy are my feet
And heart with mention
The dear that may not speak
We feel tight when there is tension
And our eyes can make us weep
And his heart was full of fire
At the man he had become
And his soul was seldom higher
With the falsities of fun
Could embrace sweet desires
In moments as they pass
But he feared ever more
He saw it didn't last
We walk up Holland Avenue and watch the rich as they consume
That product made our hearts exude an emptiness unrivalled by
The hunger that I could control
He'd pray up to his God that he might save their soul

The grey in this city is too much to bear
The grey in this city is too much to bear
And I believe we are meant to be seen and not to be understood
And I want to be held by those arms
I want to be held by those arms

You'll work your thumbs till they're sore and you'll work my heart until it's raw
And you'll call and you'll call but you'll never be told
And I'll fall and I'll fall and I'll fall and I'll fall and I'll fall and I'll fall

We are basic light, we are basic light
